depending on the ‘extension time’ setting (to be set in a range of 0 … 99
seconds or 0 ... 99 minutes, default value 0 seconds).
• ‘Gate’ mode: the activation of the ‘continuous’ mode is triggered with the
activation of an input. The deactivation of the ‘continuous’ mode is
triggered with the activation of the other input but, the activation of the
‘continuous’ mode could also be extended with the ‘extension time’ (to be
set in a range of 0 … 99 seconds or 0 ... 99 minutes, default value 0
seconds). The crossing of the gate is managed with a maximum crossing
‘gate time’ (to be set in a range of 0 … 99 seconds or 0 ... 99 minutes,
default value 0 seconds) which deactivates the ‘continuous’ mode in case
of no successful crossing of the gate within this time. Only with a
successful crossing of the gate data (tag ID and gate crossing direction
and optionally tag type and reading antenna) are save in buffer and FIFO.
The BLUEBOX allows the execution of ‘on request’ functions. During the
execution of thes e functions, the ‘continuous’ identification activity will be
suspended temporarily; the involved commands are relative to device
configuration and tag read/write specific activities.
If not required, the ‘continuous’ identification activity can be disable d through a
flag defined in the general parameters. In this case, the BLUEBOX will only
execute the ‘on request’ commands already defined above.
Two ‘test’ mode are also defined:
• ‘RF Reading’ test: in ‘continuous’ mode allows the user to easily and
quickly test the read range of the reader with fast beeping (100ms) the
buzzer (the buzzer must be connected to output 2) for every identified
tag. This ‘test’ mode is stored in non volatile memory and its status is kept
at every reader restart and until it is disabled.
• ‘RF Power’ test: allows the user to easily and quickly test the minimum RF
output power needed to read a tag in a fixed position. The reader sweeps
from the minimum RF output power to maximum RF output power or until
it finds a tag, increasing the RF power of 1 dB every 500ms with fixed Q
selection algorithm and Q=0. It is an ‘on request’ function which
temporarily suspends the ‘continuous’ mode.
The BLUEBOX with up to 4 external antennas (items 5231U, 5232U, 5233U,
5232U-MB) integrates an auto antenna tuning feature which allows the usage of
the reader in many different environments and configurations. The auto antenna
tuning is done at every power on and during normal operations of the reader.
